About Us
Renewing the Spirit of
Care Delivery
We at HBHS want to humanize the process of taking care of humans. Providers are drowning in overpowering systems, policies & procedures that prevent them from truly focusing on the care recipient. Healthcare, in particular, is buried in government mandates, counting & trending adverse events, malpractice suits & adversarial peer review. By designing practical solutions & reliable systems that support providers, we can get back to the human side of caring for others.

HB Healthcare Safety® is a Social Benefit Corporation offering systems-improvement & technology resources to reduce the harm caused by care delivery. We believe that no one should ever suffer or die as as the result of system or process failures in care delivery.
